CineBad!!!

Although Divine stars in this movie, it’s not a John Waters film. It’s too bad, because it ultimately falls short of the master. It’s not a complete bust, however.

Divine plays a hapless young maiden who sets out across the desert to a find her fortune in the town of Chile Verde. What she finds instead is a burning hunk of Tab Hunter and an evil bordello owner. But where things may appear sweet and innocent on the surface… underneath is a roiling sea of greed and deception! By far the best thing about this movie is the appearance of Nedra Voltz (remember Miss Teasdale from The Dukes of Hazzard?) who plays an aging hussy whose only dream is to wear a pretty frock.

A lovely film with many off-color scenes, but unfortunately, a slightly sluggish plot.
